Hey, welcome to 59 degrees north, a podcast about sailing with your host, Andy Shell.

Enjoy the show.

Greetings and welcome back to 59 degrees north, the podcast about sailing.

I'm your host, Andy Shell, and this is a special bonus episode, number 134 or something.

We'll just call it a bonus episode. No sponsor for this one. Like you hopefully have realized by

now, we're going to a two-week publishing schedule. Each two weeks, we'll have a new episode out with a new guest.

So I'm reserving some of these essay episodes and other stuff that comes up for the in-between.

So hopefully there won't always be two weeks between podcasts, but there will always be two

weeks between interviews. It helps me with the workflow a little bit and also gives me some time to put in these bonus episodes.

Anyway, this one's about money, as the title implies.

It's basically me talking about the last couple of years and how we've gone from kind of zero to having a

marginally successful business, at least in the first year or so,

we're getting there. And I talk about how to do that and how we did that and some of the

tips and tricks that we used to do that. So this is a good episode to keep notes if you're

interested in this for yourself. Also, I'm going to have the full transcript with links to everything I

talk about on the podcast page. So go to that page at 59-north.com slash sailing podcast. And you can follow

along and follow the links that I have here. So it's the full transcript with links and everything on

there. But there's a lot of interesting stuff in here, just on money in general, really,

and how we've managed to save as much money as we've done over the last couple years

and put all this together.

So I hope you find this interesting.

It's been fun for me to look at it in kind of the big picture,
